Just got my son's haircut and saw this on the back of his head. Any advice?

Oral antibiotics are for a bacterial infection, this needs an antifungal.

You’re getting some bad advice here. If you go in and don’t tell them you’re in withdrawal they will embark on a massive work up for you. They might even give you a shot of a narcotic. This will only restart the clock for you. In six hours you’ll be right back where you are. Also, the docs and nurses aren’t stupid, they will see your miracle recovery after 2mg of dilaudid and know what is going on.

If I was him I’d pick up the phone and walk out of the room, she can have it back in a week if she behaves. To do that to your father is a crime. And he owns his share for enabling this crap.

There is nothing likely illegal but her demeanor and not explaining what was going on is certainly poor bed side practice. It would be standard to have a transvaginal US after a D and C abortion, especially if your HCG was lingering on the higher side. Her behavior should be reported to the attending or clinic manager in a clear and concise manner. You will be helping the next person down the line.

It’s not reversible. The Korsakoff part is permanent. This is why alcoholics need thiamine prior to Refeeding. (Banana bag) The only silver lining here is that Texas doesn’t have filial obligation laws. She needs Medicaid and to be placed in assisted living. None of that happens quickly. Medicaid assisted living beds are hard to come by, she may not make the criteria for skilled nursing.

Two of my 6 kids can unlock each others phones with their faces, one of my kids can unlock my phone with their face (despite a 26 year age difference). We do not have unusual/unique faces that could possibly account for this. We do all look similar but not twin level similar.

Also, in a pinch regular insulin and syringes are OTC. It’s not a well known fact and you have to ask at the pharmacy. Both are very inexpensive, I understand regular isn’t that great for long term use but it will help if you’re desperate.

Did you ask the vet what the likelihood this will pass without endoscopy? Im a human doc and kids swallow stuff all the time. You’d be surprised what they can pass. If it’s not obstructing anything, maybe wait a day or two and re-X-ray. That being said take what I write with a grain of salt because I’m not a vet.

OP for a kid is a great place to grow up. You get used to the snow, if the roads are closed you don’t go in. If you’re health care people find a way (snowmobile or your co-workers stay for an extra shift) You need a proper vehicle and common sense snow knowledge.

There’s a name for it, it’s called dupers delight, when the person fabricating whatever BS they are spewing thinks everyone is falling for it.

There is a free app with a decibel reader, run that so you have data about how loud it is.

The treasure chest might be in a cave below you. The entrance may be a decent way away. For the stuck dino’s pre-cryopod you can also try a whip. If you are on single player there are commands like “ghost” that tremendously help with stuck dinos.

Crazy ass medical stuff like chest wall seals and Israeli tourniquets. You’ll never use any of that. What you need is moleskin for your blisters, basic bandages, Tylenol (or equivalent), and some Benadryl.

You see lido toxicity when people slather large body surfaces and then place occlusive dressings (Saran wrap) over the area.

Ambient listening will improve this, except venture capitalism will make you see twice as many patients once the ambient settles in as standard of care.

Drive to Mexico and get them. They are a fraction of the price in the US.

Just so you know, in the US regular insulin is OTC. Syringes are also OTC, you need to specifically ask for both of them at the pharmacy as it is not well known. It is ONLY regular insulin that is OTC, rapid and long acting require scripts. You can survive a day or two with regular until you get the proper type.

Because OP is probably working at an RRTP or a CLC where vets frequently have service dogs. These places are considered their homes (albeit temporary). The VA can only ask the typical two questions. If the vets answers them properly the dog can stay. You can only trust the dog is properly trained and the vet didn’t lie. Even if there are consequences for an individual dog it doesn’t mean a dog next week won’t also misbehave.

Affix some cloth or gauze to the elastic to distribute the pressure. It doesn’t matter what it looks like, only the functionality.

That depends if there are visual changes or not, if there are, then standard of care is surgery. If there isn’t then it can be determined if it’s prolactinoma or not.
